2 SP's for Sock. Milos saves one w/ a grea return, but can't save the other. Sock takes opener 6-4

Third match between them in a matter of months, this has given Sock the fit on Raonic. But whether he keeps it up is another thing. Don't underestimate how crazy furious Milos still is after his poodle exercise in the Wimbo semi... :nono

So Le Monf had the break at 3-1 and gave it back. What happened? I've been switching between WTA matches.

Just the usual Monfils choking. Sam Stosur v Serena Wiliams later will hopefully be a good one.

Nope. Serena turned this match into a route 6-0 6-2.

Sock is very focused. Pretty good to lob the big man. I have to think nerves are playing into it for Raonic. Home crowd, and loads of points to defend.

Yeah Raonic is not playing his best, but Sock has really improved. He should definitely break the top 50.

Raonic hanging in there and into a decider... I can't remember the last time I saw Milos play this poorly though. Credit to Sock too who's making some awesome shots, just not in that tie break..

I think it's gotta be nerves. That TB should help him shake them off, but Sock is not looking like he's just going to give over.

2-2. Sock will be kicking himself on the missed BP's in the last 2 service games.
